Cyberattack on French plasma stores is enough to make your blood boil

Hackers targeted cold rooms at three sites of the Établissement français du sang, manipulating temperature settings to extreme levels, reportedly reaching 110°C. The EFS stated that the organization itself was not the primary target of the cyberattack. Fortunately, alarm systems detected the temperature changes immediately, preventing any damage to blood plasma or samples. These safeguards ensured that no stock losses occurred during the incident, which affected the national blood service's storage facilities in France.
